8. Own services

Handling of applicant data

We offer you the opportunity to apply to us (e.g. by e-mail, post or online application form). In the following, we inform you about the scope, purpose and use of your personal data collected during the application process. We assure you that your data will be collected, processed and used in accordance with applicable data protection law and all other statutory provisions and that your data will be treated in strict confidence.

Scope and purpose of data collection

If you send us an application, we will process your associated personal data (e.g. contact and communication data, application documents, notes taken during job interviews, etc.) to the extent that this is necessary to decide on the establishment of an employment relationship. The legal basis for this is § 26 BDSG-new under German law (initiation of an employment relationship), Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR (general contract initiation) and - if you have given your consent - Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. Consent can be revoked at any time. Your personal data will only be passed on within our company to persons who are involved in processing your application.

If the application is successful, the data submitted by you will be stored in our data processing systems on the basis of § 26 BDSG-new and Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR for the purpose of implementing the employment relationship.

Retention period of the data

If we are unable to make you a job offer, you reject a job offer or withdraw your application, we reserve the right to retain the data you have submitted on the basis of our legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR) for up to 6 months from the end of the application process (rejection or withdrawal of the application). The data will then be deleted and the physical application documents destroyed. The retention serves in particular as evidence in the event of a legal dispute. If it is evident that the data will be required after the 6-month period has expired (e.g. due to an impending or pending legal dispute), the data will only be deleted when the purpose for further storage no longer applies.

Longer storage may also take place if you have given your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR) or if statutory retention obligations prevent deletion.

The website operator takes your data protection very seriously and treats your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory provisions. As new technologies and the constant further development of this website may result in changes to this data protection declaration, we recommend that you read the data protection declaration again at regular intervals.

The term ‘personal data’ refers to all data that can be related to you personally. This includes, for example, your name, address, e-mail addresses and user behaviour. With regard to the other terms, in particular the terms ‘processing’ and ‘consent’, we refer you to the statutory definitions under data protection law.

Scope of the processing of personal data
We only process your personal data if this is permitted by law or if you consent to the data processing. Personal data is all information that can be used to identify you personally and that can be traced back to you - for example, your name, e-mail address and telephone number.

Legal basis for the processing of personal data
Insofar as we obtain the consent of the data subject for the processing of personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis. When processing personal data that is necessary for the fulfilment of a contract to which the data subject is a party, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations that are necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. Insofar as the processing of personal data is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR serves as the legal basis. In the event that vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require the processing of personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. d GDPR serves as the legal basis.

If the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the former interest, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing.

Data processing when you visit our website
When you visit our website, the following data, so-called ‘log files’, are automatically collected, which are necessary for the establishment of the connection and a secure and convenient use of our website:

abbreviated IP address
Date/time/time zone of access

Protocol type
Type and number of pages accessed on our website
Name and size of the files accessed
Source website
Web browser used
Operating system used
This data does not allow us to draw any conclusions about your person and is not used by us to identify you. We also do not merge this data with other data about your person. The log files help us to understand on which type of computers our websites have to function and when particularly many (or few) people use our websites. In this way, the website structure, server and database systems can be adjusted accordingly. This results in our legitimate interest. The legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR. The log files are only stored for the period of use and are deleted within 7 days at the latest.

GDPR, if the enquiry is aimed at concluding a contract or relates to the execution of an existing contract, and in other cases our legitimate interest in answering your enquiry in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR. GDPR. 

After processing your enquiry, we will delete the data relating to your contact immediately, but no later than seven days after the enquiry has been dealt with. This storage period may conflict with statutory retention periods, e.g. if your enquiry is related to a contract or warranty or guarantee processing.

In this case, we will only store your enquiry beyond the expiry of seven days for the purpose of fulfilling the statutory retention obligations (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR). In this case, we will delete your data at the latest upon expiry of the statutory retention period (Section 147 (3) AO), i.e. after 10 years, starting from the conclusion of the contract. At the end of this retention period, we will delete this data immediately without you having to ask us to do so.

We can view general statistics on the interests and demographic characteristics (e.g. age, gender, region) of our profile visitors. If you use social networks, the type, scope and purposes of data processing are primarily determined by the respective operators of the social networks.

If you contact us directly via our social media profiles, we are responsible for processing the data transmitted in the process. We are jointly responsible with the respective social network for data processing in connection with usage analyses.

This also applies to profiling insofar as it is associated with such direct advertising. You also have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to processing of personal data concerning you which we process for scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes, unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out for reasons of public interest.

Right to withdraw consent under data protection law
You can revoke your consent to us at any time with effect for the future. The revocation is possible at any time informally, e.g. by e-mail to us. However, this does not affect the legality of the processing carried out up to the point of revocation.

Right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority
Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement if you consider that the processing of personal data relating to you infringes the GDPR.
